Why Mt. Adams Homes Need Exterior Drainage
Mt. Adams is Cincinnati's hilltop arts district perched dramatically above downtown, home to the Cincinnati Art Museum, Krohn Conservatory, and Eden Park. The neighborhood's steep streets, narrow lots, and stunning city views attract residents who love urban living, but the extreme terrain and aging infrastructure make water management particularly challenging on this iconic hillside.
Extreme hillside grades channel massive volumes of stormwater downhill, overwhelming drainage systems on lower lots
Retaining walls throughout the neighborhood age and fail, redirecting water toward adjacent homes and foundations
Narrow lots and dense construction limit space for traditional exterior drainage solutions
Homes built into the hillside often have foundation walls that are fully below grade on the uphill side, creating constant hydrostatic pressure
